Connecting Power and Devices
This section describes connecting power and devices to the Elite-RS panel.
Standby-Batteries
Perform the installation only after calculations have been completed for selecting a suitable battery size.
Battery standby-hours are dependant on battery capacity and loading of the FACP system.
Reference Section 5, “Maintenance and Repair for replacement requirements for the standby-batteries”.
FM Approval requires secondary power to provide a minimum of 90 hours of standby operation followed by a
minimum of 10 minutes of alarm operation.
The Elite-RS Panel accepts battery sizes up to 18AH. Batteries larger than 18AH may be mounted remotely in a
UL-listed VES Battery Cabinet. Batteries smaller than 18 AH do not require special cabinet-mounting considerations.
Reference Appendix B, “Equipment List” for UL-listed battery cabinets. The power supply can charge batteries up to
50 AH. Install two 12 VDC, 50 AH batteries in a battery cabinet listed for use by UL 864.
Batteries that are 18AH require special mounting considerations when installing them in the base of the cabinet.
Flanges located at the lower and middle-section of the cabinet prevent battery mounting directly at the cabinet-base.
Lift the standby-batteries into the cabinet above the flanges and then lower them onto the cabinet-base.
To install standby-batteries:
1
Place two 12 VDC batteries in the base of the Elite-RS cabinet that conform to the battery capacity values
determined from Appendix C, Calculations.
2
Wire the batteries in series using kit VF1514-00.
3
Remove the battery-terminal-connector from the terminal-socket on the Elite-RS Panel.
4
Orient the terminal-connector with the screw-heads facing up.
